Being in the sand, in this sport, is a phrase typically uttered under one’s breath as a golfer grumbles his or her way down the fairway. But there’s no griping about the phrase this time of year. No, it’s instead a jubilant season of laughter, bonding and togetherness, where we join friends and family to take in another one of our planet’s indescribable offerings. The golf course and summer waters have more in common than one might think. They’re both a place for rest, relaxation and reflection of everything we care for so dearly.
